Bu hacimli çalışma merkezi Washington, D.C.'de bulunan Diplomatik İncelemeler ve Eğitim Derneği'nin emekli Amerikan diplomatları ile yapmış olduğu derinlemesine sözlü tarih mülakatlarının çözümlemelerini içermekte. Bu emekli diplomatlar uzun mesleki hayatlarının bir bölümünde ya Ankara'daki Amerikan Büyükelçiliği'nde veya İstanbul, Adana ve İzmir'deki konsolosluklarda görev yaptılar. Görevde bulundukları yıllarda Türk siyaset ve kültürel sahnesinin birinci elden tanıkları olduklarından çözümlemelerde yer alan gözlemleri ve yorumları son derece değerli. Bu özellikleriyle bu çalışma modern Türkiye'nin siyasi tarihine önemli bir katkı sağlamakta.
The present book contains the transcripts of in-depth interviews conducted by The Association of Diplomatic Studies and Training of Washington, D.C. with American diplomats who during their careers served either at the American Embassy in Ankara or in the country's consulates in Istanbul, Adana and Izmir. These retired diplomats were first-hand witnesses of the Turkish political and cultural scene in the years they served in Turkey and their comments and observations are therefore extremely valuable. This book thus represents a significant contribution to the history of modern Turkey and should be of great interest to both scholars in a variety of fields as well as other interested observers of the Turkish Republic.
